So how did A claim the #31 hot spot on such an exclusive list of colorful characters? According to MTV News, A was chosen for the following reasons:

“Never has a text message been so ominous than at the thumbs of A on Pretty Little Liars. The mystery of the unseen menace is the central plotline of ABC Family’s frothy series, and theories abound as to his/her identity — from murderer to dead teen come back to life. It’s likely we’ve already met the treacherous texter, but producers have been clear that we won’t know A’s true identity for a while (perhaps series’ end) — even more reason to keep tuning in week after week.”

“Treacherous texter”? Let’s not omit frightening, over-the-top, stalkerish…and so full of delicious, dark humor. Yep, it’s official — A rocks! Do you agree as well or does another Pretty Little Liars character deserve to be on the list? Vote below and/or list your top pick in the comments!
